Subject: [PATCH v2 5/8] virt: efi_secret: Transition to the faux device interface
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2025 17:01:43 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250318-plat2faux_dev-v2-5-e6cc73f78478@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250318-plat2faux_dev-v2-0-e6cc73f78478@arm.com>
The EFI secret area driver does not require the creation of a platform
device. Originally, this approach was chosen for simplicity when the
driver was first implemented.
With the introduction of the lightweight faux device interface, we now
have a more appropriate alternative. Migrate the driver to utilize the
faux bus, given that the platform device it previously created was not
a real one anyway. This will simplify the code, reducing its footprint
while maintaining functionality.
